A Story For
This Spot
m —i - M w ■ j.
By WILL ROGERS
, COME of the queerest letters writ
' ten find their way into news
ipaper offices. It seems the natural
thing to do when a bug has some
thing crazy to say to tell it to a
poor overworked editor. But once
in a while a really funny one comes
along, and that reminds me of a
letter received by the editor of a
)tabloid newspaper for his “Embar
rassing Moments” column.
The paper pays a dollar apiece
for these letters and this one ran as
fo lows:
“I work on the late shift in an
automobile factory and came home
an hour early last night. I found
another man with my wife and was
awfully embarrassed. Please send
me $2.00 because my wife was also
embarrassed.”
The editor sent a check for $3.00
since he was sure the stranger was:
embarrassed, too.

Our personal opinion (worth lit

1. Resumption of gold standard
by America, Britian, France; even

2. Revision of war debts.
a. Dower tariffs here and abroad.
4. World armament reductions.

If you want fun—the fun of
walking plenty—'try to get in a
Washington hotel during April—
the Cherry Blossom season. We
walked plenty blocks because we
failed to reserve rooms, and saw
plenty others in the same plight.
Didn’t look like Depression here.
Hotel clerks got their old super
cilious air of “and who are you?’
back again. That’s a sure sign oi
better times.

Herald Composing
Room “Gets Fancy”
One of the Herald compositors
wanted to show you his impression
of Maurice Chevalier, so we have
the popular French star above,
straw hat, protruding underlip, and
everything . . . made from type!
Chevalier’s latest picture “A Bed
time Story” will be shown in the
city soon. (Note to Advertisers:
Please do not request any of this
‘‘fancy type-setting” in your ads.)

and representing a variance of only
a few minutes over their old sche
dules. These two trains have here
tofore not been carrying mail, but
will after Nos. 14 and 15 are dis
continued.
According to the new set-up of
Seaboard passenger trains serving
Roanoke Rapids, the city will have
only two trains daily each way. To
Norfolk at 5:08 A. M., and 10:30
A. M. To Norlina at 12:02 P. M.
and 6:23 P. M. Train No. 18, due
to arrive here at 6:23 P. M. in the
past has recognized Roanoke
Rapids only as a “flag stop”. Due
to the fact that this train will now
carry mail, it will stop regularly
at the station.
The recently announced low,
round-trip, week-end fares to Nor
folk over the Seaboard will con
tinue unaffected until September,
being good on all trains for that
destination, and altho it has not
yet been announced, it is rumored
the Seaboard may run a special
train each Saturday, for the sea
port town, returning Sunday after
noon thru-out the summer months
to take care of week-end excursion
ists.
